Complex segregation analysis of canine hip dysplasia in German shepherd dogs

Article Abstract:

The mode of inheritance of canine hip dysplasia (CHD) in German shepherd dogs were analyzed and clarified through complex segregation. Although only small frequencies were found for the unfavorable homozygotic genotype AA, the probability of the AB genotype was high in affected animals.

Inheritance of guttural pouch tympany in the Arabian horse

Article Abstract:

The mode of inheritance of guttural pouch tympany (GPT) of Arabian horses is analyzed. Studies revealed that a polygenic and a mixed monogenic-polygenic model best explained the segregation of Arabian fouls with GPT.
